InputConnectionCompat

INPUT_CONTENT_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION

int INPUT_CONTENT_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION

When this flag is used, the editor will be able to request temporary access permissions to the content URI contained in the InputContentInfoCompat object, in a similar manner that has been recommended in Sharing Files.

Make sure that the content provider owning the Uri sets the grantUriPermissions attribute in its manifest or included the <grant-uri-permissions> tag.

Supported only on API >= 25.

On API <= 24 devices, IME developers need to ensure that the content URI is accessible only from the target application, for example, by generating a URL with a unique name that others cannot guess. IME developers can also rely on the following information of the target application to do additional access checks in their ContentProvider.

• On API >= 23 packageName is guaranteed to not be spoofed, which can later be compared with getCallingPackage() in the ContentProvider.
• getUid() is guaranteed to not be spoofed, which can later be compared with getCallingUid() in the ContentProvider.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

InputConnectionCompat

InputConnectionCompat ()

commitContent

boolean commitContent (InputConnection inputConnection, 
                EditorInfo editorInfo, 
                InputContentInfoCompat inputContentInfo, 
                int flags, 
                Bundle opts)

Calls commitContent API, in a backwards compatible fashion.

createWrapper

InputConnection createWrapper (InputConnection inputConnection, 
                EditorInfo editorInfo, 
                InputConnectionCompat.OnCommitContentListener onCommitContentListener)

Creates a wrapper InputConnection object from an existing InputConnection and InputConnectionCompat.OnCommitContentListener that can be returned to the system.

By returning the wrapper object to the IME, the editor can be notified by onCommitContent(InputContentInfoCompat, int, Bundle) when the IME calls commitContent(InputConnection, EditorInfo, InputContentInfoCompat, int, Bundle) and the corresponding Framework API that is available on API >= 25.
